If you are interested in running for an SC position, or know someone who might be a good candidate, please send the nomination to nominations at nanog.org.  More details are below.

This is a very important time in the evolution of NANOG, and the SC members elected this fall will have a great opportunity to help represent the community and shape our future.

For the SC,
